Hi -- I prefer not to rename my pdfs and keep them with names I've given them. However my pdfs are now being renamed at the stage that they are sync'd to Mendeley Web. I'm not sure how long this has been happening for. Both on my desktop and laptop computers the preferences are set to *not* rename document files (unchecked). As I add a pdf to an entry on one or the other of these (by using the 'add file' option in the Details pane) it initially uploads with the name I've given the file (e.g. Smith_1989_Auctions.pdf). Then when I sync and look at the entry on the Web library, the name has been changed (to, in this case 1989-Auctions_The_...) and then when I do the sync on my laptop or desktop to attach the file in the other location, it gives it the standard name as if it had been renamed (Smith - 1989 - Auctions The ...), with the effect that the laptop and desktop versions have different file names. If I upload it direct to the web library and sync download to the desktop & laptop, they both get the 'standard' name (with the web version again as 1989-Auctions...). My laptop and desktop are both Macs, laptop is OSX 10.11.1, desktop is OSX 10.9.5, both are running Mendeley Version 1.15. Is there any way to stop this happening? -- thanks.
